Style: Cobalt and Mismatched Lamps

1. These cobalt pants might have been the best purchase ever. I have worn them so, so many times.
So this is your friendly PSA - if you don't have a pair of cobalt dress pants, you need some in your life.

2. A sweet student who works in my office gave me the nicest clothing-related compliment recently. She said that I "always (my edit: "sometimes") look cute, but also like I am not trying too hard." That is seriously the whole goal of even sharing my outfits... I want dressing cute to be easy-ish and not overwhelming. There are just so many other things in life to think about, you know?

3. We are currently working on decorating our master bedroom... do you think bedside lamps need to match? I think this is one of those things that I have spent way so much time thinking about that it's a little embarrassing (my annoying #firstworldproblems). I have had trouble finding any inspiration online for mismatched lamps. So, is it fine? Or will I be shunned from the world if my lamps are mismatched?

I like matching lamps, but I think you could definitely go with similar lamps - same height, same shade or same color to get the matching effect if you're trying to work with two different lamps. I have a cobalt pair of maternity skinnies and they are one of my most worn maternity items. I've got to find a comparable pair of non-maternity pants :)

mismatched lamps are fine! we have mismatched bedside tables, so whatever. and yay for awesome compliments! that is definitely a good goal - i want to look 'cute' or put together without looking like i spend 5 hours getting ready or caring too much (like i would if i say, wore a tulle skirt to work. that would be weird!). also, i need some cobalt pants.

Thanks so much for your comment! I reply to my comments via email, but I can't do that if you are a no-reply blogger (if you don't know what that means, you probably are). Check out this tutorial to fix it!
